Hey Exofarmers!
We’re suuuuuper excited because the Neighbors and Animals update is just around the corner, dropping on September 30th . We've already seen many of you folks prepping your farms and planning where your animals friends will go. Some of you are even stocking up on fodder—love seeing that y’all are just as hyped as we are!
Q: Will my save file still work with the new update?
A: Yep, no worries! If you’re a returning Exofarmer, you can pick up right where you left off and dive into the new content. If you’re a new player, or if you just want to start fresh, you’ll unlock the new stuff a little later in the game. More on unlock conditions in a post later on!
If you haven't checked out the post with the update trailer and all the details yet - go ahead and read more about it here!
Demo going offline
With this update, we wanted to give you a quick heads-up that we’ll be taking down the Lightyear Frontier demo. It was launched during Next Fest back in February, and we feel like the demo has done its job for now and doesn’t really reflect the current state of the game anymore. Big thanks to our awesome community for all the feedback and suggestions that have helped shape Lightyear Frontier into what it is today – we couldn’t have done it without y'all!
The demo will be removed from Steam on October 8th, 10 AM PT / 7 PM CET
Q: Why not just update the demo?
A: Creating a demo takes up a lot of resources, and we have to put all our effort into making the full game as great as possible. So, it made more sense to take it down for now, but we may consider creating a new one in the future!
Q: Will there be another demo?
A: Right now, our plan is to release a new demo closer to the 1.0 launch. But that could change depending on how things go!
Happy farming!
